Challenges of imaging the tricuspid valve.

Challenges of TV Imaging
• Variable and fragile anatomy
• High (pre- and after-) load dependancy
• Low pressure environment / slower jet velocity
• Presence of CIED-leads
• Artifacts from left-sided bioprosthetic valves
• Limited evidence and experience
• Not or insufficiently validated cut-off values
